Installation of Jøtul F 500
Note! Check that the stove is free of any damage prior to
commencing installation.
The product is heavy! Make sure you have assistance when
erecting and installing it.
Foundations
If Jøtul F 500 is to be installed on a wooden floor, ensure that
the floor under the stove has the dimensions to carry it.
Chimney
The stove can be connected to a brick, pre-fabricated element
or Jøtul steel chimney. See separate section. Minimum chimney
cross section must be 177 cm
2
. (Corresponding to 150 mm dia.).
Connection to chimney must be done in accordance with the
installation instructions from the supplier of the chimney.
Air circulation
Using a fireplace requires a plentiful supply of fresh air to the
room where the product is installed. If the house is sealed, the
room ought to be equipped with extra fresh air supply through
vents. Avoid using mechanical fan vents in a room with a
fireplace. This may cause negative pressure and draw poisonous
gasses into the room. In order to avoid this, it is possible to
bring in outside air directly to the stove by using an adapter
(fig. 6) (extra unit) that is mounted to the air inlet of the stove.
From there a flexible hose is conducted out of the house.
Assembly prior to installation
The product is delivered in one package.
The oval top plate is fastened with screws during transport.
Remove the screws from underneath the top plate and leave it
unattached. This makes it easier for the chimney sweep when
the product and the flue pipe have to be cleaned.
The ash lip, which is nailed to the top, is placed loosely at the
front of the base plate.
Control of functions (fig. 3)
When the product is set up, always check the control functions.
These shall move easily and function satisfactorily.
Draught vent (A)
Left position = closed. Right position = fully open.
Doorhandle (B) Towards the left = open, towards
the right=closed
Doorhandle (C) towards the right=open, towards the left=closed
Ash door (E) Open the door by turning the knob counter-
clockwise one half rotation. Use a glove or similar and pull out
the tray.
Note! Only remove the ashes when the stove is cold.
Mounting of flue pipe
It is advisable to carry out a test assembly prior to making a
hole in the chimney. See fig. 2 for measures to wall made of
flammable materials. The stove is installed with a 150 mm
diameter flue pipe. This must be an approved thickness.
The flue outlet for Jøtul F 500 is inside the burn chamber during
transportation. You can choose between a top or rear outlet
from the flue pipe. The screws for fastening are in the bag
containing screws.
•
Flue pipes 150 mm dia. are placed directly onto the product
flue outlet. There is a screw on both sides of the product
flue outlet (fig. 4-A). These are used to fasten the flue pipe.
• Mark where the screws hit the flue pipe when it is at the
very bottom of the flue outlet and drill a 5,5 mm hole for
the screw in the flue pipe.
• Use gasket and cement to seal between flue pipe and
product flue outlet. Place the gasket around the lower part
of the flue pipe and fill up the space with cement.
• Fasten the flue pipe with screws.
Note! It is important that the joints are completely sealed. Air
leakage etc. may lead to malfunction.
Connection to chimney
Drill a hole for the flue pipe. Distance from stove to firewall/
chimney should be as shown in fig. 2. Always use a chimney
collar when connecting to chimney. Use the supplier's
recommended chimney collar when connecting to an element
chimney. Follow the supplier's assembly and usage instructions
closely with regard to mortar/furnace cement before starting
to use the fireplace.
Ensure that the flue pipe never slopes down towards the
chimney. It should at least be horizontal, preferably have an
incline of a few millimeters.
Note! A correct and sealed connection is very important for the
proper functioning of the product.
Be alert to the fact that it is particularly important that
connections have a certain flexibility. This is to prevent setting
of the house from leading to fissuration.
